How Can Psoriasis Be Treated?

Yes please! I went to city md and they told me I had psoriasis. I do believe I have it however there is something else going on that triggered it. I have never had it before and the past month and a half it has taken over my life. I think I have a fungal infection going on under my breasts and entire genital area also under my armpits and anal area. it s literally eating me alive.
